the reason why my reverse auger works so good and doesn't break is the fact that it has 7' of 5/8'' spring leader before any welds or attachments. the 7/8'' has a good 14'.

the weld can easily weaken the cable at that point. while the rest of the cable can flex. the weld stops the cable from moving and absorbing the spring tension. a 5/16'' cable is not a heavy wire gauge.
